I have found it to be a great powder with CB's in bottleneck cartridges. The problem is price and availability. It has shot exceptionally well in my 30/30, 338 WM, and my 250 Sav. but it has been occasionally so hard to find that I found alternatives like RE-7 and Red Dot that, with care, shoot nearly as well. I now have plenty but rarely use it since I set my loads up for the alternatives.
